Carrie Gulledge has a seven month old baby boy and thinks she has the next military secret weapon. Let’s get to know this cloth diapering mom a bit more:
Q. How have cloth diapers changed your life?
A. They’ve given me a reason to look forward to the mail! :) Also, in a world that over-accessorizes girls but provides little for boys, they give us something to accessorize with! Plus, through social networking channels, the online cloth diapering community has connected me with women I wouldn’t have otherwise known!
Q. What is your funniest diapering changing, poop or pee story?
A. The other morning, I changed a diaper that was awful – it had 12 hours of pee and one good poop in it. And I thought, if only the military had a way to bottle this smell. Forget expensive nuclear weapons or torture techniques – a bottle of that smell is all they would need!
Q. What do you find most rewarding about motherhood?
A. That last moment, before they fall asleep, when they are looking at you, and only you, with so much love and trust – that is the reward of motherhood.
Q. What was the last movie you watched / or last book you read? Tell us about it.
A. The last movie I watched was Spongebob – the bane of my existence. My older kids love to watch it and they know how much that movie drives me crazy!
Q. If you had 24 hours of freedom to do anything you wanted (and money wasn’t an object), what would you do?
A. I would want to be sitting on a beach with a drink in one hand and my Kindle in the other. Then I would catch up on my sleep!!! I haven’t slept more than four hours in the last 10 months!!!
